Sunday 13th January 2013

So, the choice to be made on Sunday morning was whether to head to London to see and photograph steam locomotion return to the London Underground for the fist time since 1905.

You might think this was, in fact, no choice at all. However, there would be drawbacks: the main one being the world and his wife had been made aware of the LU 150 celebrations; and so a quick internet search would reveal the route and times.

A trip to london costs something like £76 for the two of us, and that was 2012 prices, it's possibly near a ton now. And then there was going to be the crowds and the thought that a trip to London to see a train pass could mean getting into a ruck with hundreds of other photographers, and maybe not seeing anything at all.

So, we decided to stay home in Dover, save our money. Am I really getting that sensible now?
